Who is listening on Facebook?

I love it when people test things. 
In this case, Celeste tested my guess that perhaps 10% of your friends on Facebook were actually "listening" to anything you have to say. And, she did it in a way that helped her prove her own point. You gotta applaud that. :)
Recently, Jeff Turner wrote this blog post -- Your Facebook Friends Are Not Really Listening.
The blog post was a response to this tweet: @imranpoladi says his friends on #Facebook follow the “1-9-90%” trend… 1% comment, 9% Like, 90% are just listening
Turner went on to explain that while he liked the symmetry of the statement, he found it hard to believe that more than 10% of your Facebook friends even have the chance to be listening.  This is due to Facebook's throttling functions and the shear capacity that any of your friends have to actually pay attention to what everyone in their feed is saying.
